Maine GOP Warns Voter Registration Is Evil Homosexual Plot

The loony hillbillies of the Maine GOP have had a hard time convincing residents to back them in their opposition to a statewide referendum measure that would permit Election Day voter registration, so their latest strategy has them running ads ominously informing the citizenry IN SCREAMING ALL CAPS that anyone who supports the measure, known as “Question 1,” is in fact a flaming member of Team Homo, because voting rights are super gay. Real heterosexuals hate democracy.

The chairman of the Maine Republican Party is defending a print advertisement that singles out a gay rights’ group’s involvement in the effort to retain Election Day registration.

GOP Chairman Charlie Webster said the ad, which was circulated by more than 25 community newspapers, was designed to “educate” the public about EqualityMaine, one of the advocacy groups involved in the coalition that wants to retain the state’s 38-year-old EDR law. However, members of the coalition say the ad is designed to mobilize opponents of same-sex marriage and marks yet another example of Webster and EDR opponents’ attempts to distract voters from the real issue of Question 1.

This from the fuckers who have been actively recruiting voters in the churches for the past 35 years. How much money did they spend on that?

And unlike sexual orientation, being a churchgoer actually is a lifestyle choice.

Cash4HoboBeans

Methinks going to church can be an indication of sexual orientation–if you're a Catholic priest, at least

http://www.kalimao.blogspot.com Herring_Burnit

Yes. You don't have to *do* anything to be gay, but in order to be a churchgoer, you have to — surprise! — go to fucking church.

These people are so fucking hateful, that I can't WAIT till they've extinguished their contribution to the gene pool and died the ignominous death they deserve.

Ha ha, you mean "Olympia Snowe," who sounds like some sort of ice goddess but is actually from Brooklyn or some damn place.* And Collins has Diane Rehm's Disease which it isn't appropriate to make fun of except for the fact that as a US Senatorette your job is to talk, and having that kind of herky-jerky hitch in your oratorial gitalong is like being a one-legged placekicker, if you know what I mean.

Really more for her DINO/RINO vacillation than her odd talk. Yes being a swing vote allows her to harvest much personal glory, air time, and pork for the Pine Tree State, but it’s pretty ugly when you just see it like that.

Yah. She keeps dipping her toes in the shallows and then playing shitty little games with both sides and with the people of her state. If only Mainiacs weren't quite so Maniacal, they'd break down and find themselves a decent Democrat. But then again, this is the state that elected that revolting pig Paul LePage.

The ad does not mention Election Day registration. It also doesn't disclose who paid for it. Webster said none of the Maine GOP's campaign material contained a disclosure line, which according to the state's Ethics Commission, is not required by law.

He added that he had a relative who was gay. "How they live their life is none of my business and I have no problem with them being part of the democratic process. It’s just that people have a right to know whose funding this effort, who is involved in this campaign."

There is a squeaker of a recall going on here in Michigan. In some non-descript district in suburban Flint, reports are out that "family value" conservative Paul "Babby-Daddy" Scott is going to get recalled 50.5% to 49.5%. Please let this be true, lord. This "young gun" is repugnant.

fuflans

damn. day-em.

tonight's feeling a little like payback for baggers.

Negropolis

Michigan Radio is confirming that the unofficial tally shows Paul losing by 232 votes:

Rick Pluta just called in to say that Michigan State Representative Paul Scott (R-Grand Blanc) has been recalled. Scott conceded defeat saying his campaign did their best, they came up short, and that he will not rule out running again in the future.

Scott is the first sitting state lawmaker to be recalled since 1983.

Oh, happy day! I know this only makes a little dent in their numbers, but it better be a wake-up call. What's notable about this is that this is a pretty solidly red, Republican district. It's also a suburban district, meaning that they are generally not crazy about the GOP on social issues. Let this be a warning to all suburban Republicans in Michigan that there seats are just as vulnerable, next year. There ill-gotten gains are showing themselves for what they are.

The GOP is really pissed about this recall. In fact, before the recall, they were putting together punative legislation that specifically targeted the teachers union behind this recall. There are already GOP consultants saying that the gloves are off, now, and that the GOP is going to try to crush teachers into the ground for this.

In all the talk of calling zygotes humans and teachers fascistic parasites, I didn't realize that there was an election in AZ to recall Russell Pearce, president of the state Senate and architect of the infamous immigration law.

From the comments to the article:
"The only thing this campaign has educated us on is how low and sleazy its proponents are. They are trying to win by stirring up hatred and bigotry. First it was immigrants, then it was college students, then it was Canadians and now homophobia."

Apparently the Maine GOP hates immigrants, educated people and Canadians more than it hates gays. That's progress!

(When I was a military cadet as a youngster I met other teenagers from across Canada. The New Brunswick cadets were always talking about how American Election Day was their favorite time of year. They would get all liquored up, then swim the St. Croix river and go vote for Democratic things. (The Democratic party would print up special waterproof voter guide sheets for them.) They didn't have Social Security numbers, Maine driver's licences, any form of proof of Maine address, and in fact every form of identification they had made it clear that they were from New Brunswick. But thanks to same-day voter registration, this was no obstacle. (Fortunately, some of the ID was in French, which made it easy to defraud honest but naive Maine election officials. The cadets were coached to say "Yes, it looks as if this is a New Brunswick drivers licence, but the French part takes it back. "Nouveau Brunswick" is French for "Correction: It's Maine, actually.") After the cadets, still dripping wet, had voted, a Democratic party official (a big guy wearing a Black Panther beret and carrying a truncheon) would give them a coin containing $100 worth of Nazi gold. (They knew because it was stamped on the coin: $100 In NAZI GOLD.) Then they would all have gay sex and go to college.)
